Intel deliberately underclocked the bus so they would not compete with the overpriced PIIIs. Of course, when the PIII can run at 100/133 MHz bus and in dual processor configurations, so can the Celeron. It's the same chip core. It's just that Intel says it's "not supported". So they can sell them cheaper. They haven't exactly tried the "cheaper" trick with the P4s yet. Maybe we will see a cheaper P4SX later? :-) Bo Persson bop@malmo.mail.telia.com
